Looks great, and I too thought of a "blue cobra" when I saw the photo (but I didn't have time to respond immediately). I will make a note of that kind of yarn, although I have two or three other skeins of sock yarn that need to be used before I buy any more.
i have a small stash of hand dyed or self striping yarn, and i've been feeling an itch to work a more complicated stitch pattern that would need a solid yarn to show it off

Also excellent impromptu cobra sock-puppet, come to think of it.

I did my first Kitchener tonight. It doesn't look quite as good as yours, but it's good enough :-)

so much joy!
and, folks were totally right, i was mixing up knit and purl nearly every stitch! i had to fight to concentrate
new rule: no kitchenering when tired!

i tried so hard to avoid the cobra (in the other 17 pictures), but then, i just gave in to the sillynes!

I like knitting with friends and coming to the toe, dropping out of the conversation. Knitters understand. :)
ps - nice sock! :)
